the Sioux bill then pending if passed

order. was in Washington two weeks
before the issue of the order and knew
that the order was then drawn of Dele
gate Reynolds request to be issued in
case the Sioux bill failed to pass, the
secretary having decided that the res
ervation could be opened by order. No
secrecy was observed and day or two
later the Sioux City Journal published
an interview with me, stating that the
order was likely to issue. never spoke
to Day about it or to any railroad man.
Raymond teiegraphed the Chamberlain
Register ss soon as the order was issued.
Aifew days after the issue of Cleveland's
order Attorney General Rice reported
that 2 900 families were on the reserva-
ton. / believe the railroad company
scripped go acres previously purchased
from Indians. There was no grab and
nothing strange or irregular in the
action OF the department..
The fact that the attorney general
officially reported 2,0OOiamilies on the
reservation few days after the order
was issued is proof that there was no
secret conspiracy in the case. Most of
these families came from the states and
many of them made several days jour,
ney to reach Grow Greek.

Sioux Falls has finally received di-

road, has received definite proposition
regarding what will be asked OF Sioux
Falls In order to secure her connection
with the Manitoba system. The aid
specified is $4,000 and right of way. A
communication was at once sent back,
asking that q definite and absolute guar
ranty be given by the company that in
case the bonus asked should be raised
It would certainly build at once to this
city. When this guaranty has been re-
ceived, the people Of Sioux Falls will
arise in their might and raise whatever
may be necessary to set dirt to flying in

From the action OF the Manitoba in
the case of Sioux Falls comes an idea o
what will be required from Yankton il
the future. We take 1t that the damano
for right Of way means right OF way
through Sioux Falls. The Manitoba ha.
remained silent regarding its intentions
on Sioux Falls until the final survey il

Captain Myers, of the United States
army, has issued notification to the
settlers upon the Grow Creek tract that
if they return to their homes after being
evicted they willrender themselves liable
to three years imprisonment and $1,000
fine. This is the law relating to Indian
reservations, but as the Grow Greek tract
is not an Indian reservation, the warning
is merely buncombe. A good way to
bring this matter into the courts would
be to make test case and let the gov

A North Dakota Movement,

ing in the neighborhood OF the Devils
Lake "Cut Head" OF the Sioux reser.
vatlon, are making an effort to have the
land thrown open to settlement. Peti-
tions are being circulated in Benson and
Eddy counties, and are receiving the
signature OF nearly every citizen and
taxpayer. The opening of this reserva-
ton would throw ABOUT 220, 600 acres of
good, rich and tillable land open to
settlers. and prove quite an impetus to
the settlement of the adjacent counties.
The Indians occupying these lands num-
ber about 300. Under tho care Of
Msi. Mclaughlin, formerly oil Fort
Totten, and Maj Uramsie. the present
agent, the Indians have taken rapid
strides toward civilization, and
are now among the most
peacekble and industrious OF
all the nations wards. They have
first -class schools and churches, are we'll
supplied with teams and farming imple-
ments, and pay considerable attention to
agriculture, in which industry most of
the bucks are engaged. The land which
they occupy is the best is the Deighbor-
hood. It lies on the soHth bank OF the
lake, and its fertility is unsurpassed.
The people Of Benson, Eddy and adjacent
counties have no charges to prefer
against these Indians. On the contrary
they acknowledge their unusually civili-
!zed condition, but nevertheless, claim
that the immense area of land they oc-
cupy is too much for handful OF Indians

An Addiction Which Frequently u the
Result Of - Fun ctional Disturbance.
Some disorders are organic; others.
functional only. In the first case. the
organ. could we look in upon It. would
be seen to be diseased; in the latter,
however violent the symptoms-and
they may he more violent than in the
former case-the organ would show
not the slightest traces Of unsoundness.
Paralysis is generally due to some
organic disorder of the brain or spinal
cord. But there is often an apparent
incipient paralysis. which causes the
patient much painful apprehension.
which, however, is the result of only
some function disturbance. There are
num5ness and tinglin@, sometimes in
one upper extremity, and sometimes in
both; sometimes in both upper and
lower extremities; and sometimes ON
one side OF the body. 1t occurs more
frequently in women, but is far from
being confined to them. 1t is not
strange that the patient should feel APP
prehensive, for even some physicians
have been deceived by such cases,
especially in the severer forms.
DR.. Ormcrod thus describes a case:
"On waking. the patient has feeling
in the arms and hands commonly of
both sidcs-Of numbness, deafness,
pins and needless sometimes there is
severe pain. There is also a loss of
power; the hands and arms become
useless, and he can not hold things.
This may SO far predominant that the
patient comes TO be treated for a sup
posed paralysis. He furthersays that
the symptoms more commonly begin
in the night, but occasionally in the
day time.
DR.. Saundby, of London-the au-
thority on this subject-regards these
symptoms as purely functional and as
due mainly 10 some disorder of the
stomach. He gives among other eases.

from the city to the country. man of
hearty habits but of little exercise. His
tongue was badly coated. his breath Of
fcnsive, and he complained of head
ache. irritability, and especially of
numbness OF the right arm and hand.
A former physician had assured him
that he was suffering from organic dis
ease. But under appropriate treat
ment all the symptoms passed away.
and he has now for years enjoyed the
best of health.
Such patients have little cause for
any depressing fear of a paralytic
shock. They are no more liable to it
than those not so affccted.-IOuth'S
